It feels like every comedy show these days is about “the messiness of life and love” but Togetherness has a lowkey approach that makes it comforting to watch, at least in the first few episodes. Eventually, things take a turn for the serious as the foursome grows, regresses, and grows again from the things they learn about their relationships, both with each other and with others. But even during its darker moments, Togetherness never feels too far away. Anyone who’s been in a long-term marriage seeking more avenues for excitement, or who’s long been struggling with work and love, afraid they might not achieve anything by the time they turn 40 or 50, will find a lot to like and relate with in this comfort watch of a show.

I know there was a bloat of indie dramedies like this in the 2010s, but now I’m beginning to miss them a lot.
